imitant@ ned stpteltter z, 1905..' saranno. 'aragon To all 'whom tt may concern: Be it known that i,.THoMris YATES, asubjectoi the .King of Great Britain andv Ireland, 4and residing at Greengate Mills, `Saliord7 in the vcounty'ol Lancaster, 5 England, have invented new vand useful Improvements Applicable to Ring-SpinningMachines, of whieh'the following isaspeeil'lcation.

The object of this invention Vis to' produeeby simple v means lbetter and iirrner ops vthan has hitherto been 1 0 possible in ringspinning machines, and at the saine l l.time te wind about twice the quantity or "number-of yards of yarn on each cop oi the saniedianieter as usual.

The present invention is a modiiicationoi the inventien 'iorniing the subject oi my applieatien ioij Letters l5 Patent in the'll. S. Serial No. 232,363,V 'ledNovernher. 11,1904.' .J 'A 'f The mannerin which niy present invention is to be performed or carried ntepractiealeffeet willige readily" understood' on reierence to the two sheet-s of illustrative 20 drawings hereunto annexed in which i Figure l is affront elevation. O partei the end of a' ring frame showing the parts which are affected by rriy invention as applied to the f HoW-ard and Bulloughtype oi ring-spinning machines.

' The ring rail b is lifted by the lifting rodsor pokersf e,

Instead el passing this 35y lifting chain over a pulley provided with Cani surfaces in order te regulate the speed atwhichltherihg rail bis l lifted,A I havefonnd that a much greater variety of speed 4 anda muchmore Aaccurate 'adjustment thereof maybe secured by lthe new means which forni the subject of this invention. Instead'ef running the chain in a sin- 'also made adjustable with relation to their length.4 l

have shown theni as screw threaded reds' seiewine' into the pulley, and vprovided with scouring nuts m. By' 50 this means I make itpessible to vary at will the speed at which the ringr rail travels,` sin ce the greater the speed with'which the pulley is rotated, the iaster is the quadrant g pulled over and the lever .7L kicked up. The arms j have the. saine effeet'as if the pulley were pro-- videdwith a cam face, the earn el which is adjustable at will.v By this means l aan able to secure a bobbin or 'cop o fany desired shape, or adapt the wind to any shape l claim as my invention Y In a ring 'sp-inning: machine, u ifing' ral, a lifting-rod therefor, :iv lever actnatingsnidlifting rod, a. chain secured* to said lever, and inenns'i'er ac tuating'seid chain, iii cuinblnation with a'pulley having nrnis adjustable in relntioli 4to their length, 'whereby the speed-at which Vsaid .levenjis eiected I nay be varied atwitl.
